"We have to help them!" "Yes we do." Paramount has revealed their main official trailer for If, written and directed by John Krasinski inbetween his other A Quiet Place movies. The first teaser trailer arrived in December, setting up the premise and introducing many of the characters. The film follows a young girl who goes through a difficult experience and then begins to see everyone's imaginary friends who have been left behind as their real-life (human) friends have grown up. She teams up with Reynolds to try and find new kids to connect all the leftover characters. If (which stands for "Imaginary Friend") stars Ryan Reynolds, John Krasinski, Cailey Fleming, and Fiona Shaw, with the voices of Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Louis Gossett Jr. and Steve Carell, including many more as the wonderfully unique characters that reflect the incredible power of a child's imagination. This looks super fun! Steve Carrel as the...

James Bond is dead. Blown up by a big old bunch of missiles to destroy the nanobots he was infected with.
At least, this Bond, the one played by Daniel Craig, is dead. He’s also the Bond who we first met beating up a guy in a toilet in the moody black and white opening of Casino Royale. And with him dies the first properly 21st-century take on Bond, hailed as a complete reinvention of the character despite being written by the same screenwriters who supposedly killed the franchise in fans’ minds with Die Another Day.
This Bond was fresh, new, and yet also harked back to the origins of the character—adapting Ian Fleming’s very first Bond novel to create an origin story for the agent (at a time when those were very in vogue).
Where previous Bonds were strapped to a table with a laser beam pointed at their crotch,...

Spoilers for "The Patient" follow
On October 25, 2022, "The Patient" concluded its 10-episode run. The mini-series tells the story of Dr. Alan Strauss (Steve Carrel), a therapist held captive by one of his patients, Sam Fortner (Domhnall Gleeson). It turns out Sam didn't disclose a pretty big detail during their sessions — he's a serial killer. As my /Film colleagues have said, serial killer stories have been done to death. To stand apart, "The Patient" adds a new wrinkle: Sam wants to stop killing. He's abducted Strauss not to murder him, but to be his in-house therapist. Early on, Alan tells Sam that anyone who's willing to go to therapy can be helped. The story is designed to test his thesis.
Due to the confined setting, the series relies on flashbacks to flesh out Alan. We learn how his relationship with his son Ezra (Andrew Leeds) fell apart after Ezra converted to Orthodox Judaism.
